One would expect a luthier’s inspiration to be found in a twentieth century musical icon, epitomising the passion of the rock and roll ideal.

That’s not Martyn Booth.

When asked who inspires him when crafting his guitars, his reply is, perhaps, surprising.

Newton;

for the discovery of physical laws which define movement, stress, action and reaction.

Faraday;

his discovery of electromagnetism forms the basis of the science that allowed the electrification of guitars.

Euclyd;

the ‘father of geometry’ formed the basis of modern mathematics over 23 centuries ago, from which Martyn derives the theory that both the aesthetics and performance of an instrument rely on these ancient principles.

Pythagoras;

the famed Greek philosopher and mathematician who discovered that musical notes could be translated into mathematical equations.
